> hi all

> SW1 has a host on vlan 10 and SVI vlan 10 with ip add 10.1.1.1/24.
>
> the host is set to choose ip address automatically from dhcp server.
>
> i have ios router as dhcp server on vlan 20
>
> SVI vlan 20 has ip add 20.1.1.1 and dhcp server as 20.1.1.2
>
> on the SVI of vlan 10 i have set the helper-address to 20.1.1.2 of the
> dhcp
> server.
>
> my hosts are getting the ip address from the server .
